new phenomenonIn my currier I am photographing for over 50 years in Tokyo and here in California. And now I am into digital way of photography for 7, 8 years, switching from conventional way, due to the environmental issues when dumping chemicals, and spacing issue of having darkroom in a small apartment in a city living. To make fine print is always my concern. I try to make it as close as possible to the darkroom print I used to make. Then I finally found the ideal paper, Canson-Platine-Fibre-Rag paper. It is excellent paper for creating accurate detail just like darkroom print. Then I realized a big change when I tested the paper on my new order arrived a month ago. Canson changed the emulsion on this product. I've got totally different result with the paper received this time. And I am currently fighting with bronzing problem since receiving this new batch. Until now, I had never had bronzing phenomenon on Canson product. I still believe that they make the finest paper. But I want to hear what they say about the bronzing issue I'm experiencing on this new batch. I'm still searching the way to overcome the problem with my trusted Platine Fibre, but if I can't avoid this unwanted phenomenon, I'd have to leave from Canson-Platine-Fibre-Rag paper.

Excellent Fine Art Ink Jet PaperThis is a great luster paper. I love the color of the paper, and the fact that it doesn't have optical brighteners. The weight is just right. My fine are prints look fantastic, and sales have been good. The profile, at least for my 3880, are all I need.

Better than Canon Pro Platinum and costs four times as much!A luscious tactility and heft when you (or another important person) holds your print on Platine Fiber Rag but you know what? The image itself isn't any better than Canon Pro Platinum at one-fourth the price. Try it yourself and you'll agree. Of course, the substantial tactility and heft does pre-dispose the print viewer to say, A quality image.

The choice for my BW digital lab!Canson Platine Fibre is more like the black and white emulsion papers I use, such as Ilford Multigrade. Thus, I am very happy with the digital print. Choose the correct profiles and BADA BING, BADA BOOM! good work for color and BW. I use an older Epson 2880 13x19, and I am getting the hang of it. Very pleased. It renders better than the Baryta surface using a luster print setting. WHOOP!
